Velocity-space turbulent cascade in the near-Sun solar wind: first insights from the Parker Solar Probe mission
A. Larosa, O. Pezzi, T. Bowen +11
In space plasmas, the rarity of collisions leads to complex structures in the velocity space where a turbulent cascade of the velocity distribution function fluctuations is thought…
Proton specific entropy as a proxy for the charge state ratio over heliocentric distance
Jack D. Collard, Tamar Ervin, Ryan M. Dewey +10
While the fast solar wind has well-established origins in coronal holes, the source of the slow solar wind remains uncertain. Compositional metrics, such as heavy ion charge state…
On the Propagation and Damping of Alfvenic Fluctuations in the Outer Solar Corona and Solar Wind
Nikos Sioulas, Marco Velli, Chen Shi +17
We analyze \textit{Parker Solar Probe} and \textit{Solar Orbiter} observations to investigate the propagation and dissipation of Alfvénic fluctuations from the outer corona to 1~AU…
Formation of Magnetic Switchbacks via expanding Alfvén Waves
Trevor A. Bowen, Alfred Mallet, Corina I. Dunn +8
Context. Large-amplitude inversions of the solar wind's interplanetary magnetic field have long been documented; however, observations from the Parker Solar Probe (PSP) mission hav…
Intermittent, Reflection-Driven, Strong Imbalanced MHD Turbulence
B. D. G. Chandran, N. Sioulas, S. Bale +4
We develop a phenomenological model of strong imbalanced magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence that accounts for intermittency and the reflection of Alfven waves by spatial variatio…
Observations of Transition from Imbalanced to Balanced Kinetic Alfvénic Turbulence
Jinsong Zhao, Trevor A. Bowen, Stuart D. Bale +3
We report observations of solar wind turbulence derived from measurements by the Parker Solar Probe. Our findings reveal the emergence of finite magnetic helicity within the transi…
